Controversy
In March 2023, when Punjab Police was in search of a pro-khalistan separatist Amritpal Singh, curfew imposed in several districts and mobile internet services were shut down in Punjab, Shubh shared a portrait of an allegedly distorted map of India in his Instagram story titled "Pray for Punjab", created by Amandeep Singh, a graphic artist known by the pseudonym Inkquisitive. The portrait shows a police cop unplugging a light bulb, rendering the states of Punjab, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh dark, while Northeastern states, and the union territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were omitted, garnering criticism for wrong portrayal of map of India. Notably, actress Kangana Ranaut alleged it as an indirect support to the Khalistan movement. Facing backlash, Shubh removed the story and replaced it with the words "Pray for Punjab" on a black background. Later, Inkquisitive, divulged on social media and apologising saying it was ‘not done intentionally to provoke any sort of separate state agenda’ but to show 'blackout in Punjab.
In September 2023, Shubh announced his first India tour. The electronics brand boAt withdrew its sponsorship of Shubh's upcoming India tour following criticism. Subsequently, on 20 September, the ticketing app BookMyShow announced the cancellation of the singer's India tour. Indian cricketers like Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Hardik Pandya and Suresh Raina also unfollowed him on Instagram. On 19 September, Inkquisitive again divulged in social media that Shubh shared his artwork, and apologised saying it was to show 'blackout in Punjab. Showing solidarity to Shubh, Inkquisitive blamed Ranaut for giving it a 'pro-khalistan angle' Later on 21 September, Shubh took to his Instagram handle to provide clarification as a concern for internet shutdown in Punjab and expressed his disappointment over the cancellation of the tour saying, "India is My country too". Other artists like AP Dhillon, Karan Aujla and Sidhu Moose Wala's team came in support of Shubh. Several politicians from Punjab, including Harsimrat Kaur Badal, Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, and Bikram Singh Majithia also supported him.
During a concert in London on 29 October 2023, Shubh held up a black hoodie thrown from the audience which allegedly had the date and an image showing assassination of former prime minister Indira Gandhi by her bodyguards Satwant Singh and Beant Singh on a map of Punjab. Later Shubh posted on social media that a lot of clothing, jewelleries and phones were thrown at him showing support from the audience and he did not see what was on it along with video.
